I'm talking about those guys who you see lifting weights way to big for them at the gym and scream every rep.

I don't want to be judgemental but do they realize how silly they look. I'm all for pushing yourself responsibly in weightlifting but if you can't do an exercise without screaming from extreme exertion every single rep for 20+ reps,
A. You're probably not keeping good form and can easily hurt yourself
B. You have now distracted and annoyed half the gym

C. I'm super yoked and I have to show everyone in the gym just how big I am.

In a crowded gym it is one of the most douche bag moves one can make. 2nd only to a mirror selfie between sets.

I was wearing headphones and had the sound all the way up and I could still hear someone tonight. People were just looking at each other pondering WTF was happening.

People who complain about these things are newbies humble bragging that they finally got into a gym

if they scare you, just go pull the lunk alarm. theyll be asked to leave so as to not intimidate the rest of you that are just there for the free pizza.
